I'm more curious as to why the coal workers didn't anticipate that. See the end coming in a few decades and work towards developing new industries. Even the Arabs know that they won't have the oil as a source of income forever, and are slowly building up an industry.
Did they really think that they would be pulling coal out of the ground until the end of time?

And there is nothing else THERE in Appalachia. Coal and trees. And they don't allow foresting either. The coal in Appalachia would probably last another 1000 years.
